LAYTON, Utah â Early Thursday morning a Utah woman and her husband were out for a bike ride.
Sandi Sabin said they were riding along the Denver and Rio Grande Western Rail Trail, which is typically crowded with people and wildlife.
âI have seen a snake a few times or raccoons,â said Sabin.
Yet, Sabin never expected to run into a Wolverine.
âI saw what I thought was a dog that was running toward us and I could see a couple walking in the distance also,â she said.
